David (Tracey) Taylor and Sue (Dick) Kelly. Carl was incredibly close with all of Nancy's extended family including all of her siblings and more loving family members. He was a fun loving, hardworking and good hearted man. He retired from Delphi after nearly 40 years, where he was lovingly referred to as "Mushy." Carl also laid carpet throughout the years for

Vernon Murphy at Murphy's Carpet and very much enjoyed working after retirement at WGC Golf Course in Xenia, Ohio. Carl loved playing bingo, the banjo, golf, listening to bluegrass music, and was an avid Bengals fan. Carl and Nancy

attended Northminster Presbyterian Church. Above all, Carl was a dedicated family man. He was over the moon for all of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. A visitation will be held on

Friday, December 10, 2021, at Jackson Lytle & Lewis Life

Celebration Center from 11:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. His service will follow at 12:00 p.m. officiated by Pastor Dwight McCormick. Carl will be laid to rest at Enon Cemetery. The family would like to personally thank the amazing staff that cared for Carl from Ohio's Hospice of Dayton and would

prefer memorial contributions be made to their organization in Carl's honor or to his church, Northminster Presbyterian Church. Condolences may be expressed to the family by
